the front wheel bearings are press fit easyest thing you can do is take the complete hub off and take to a local garage that can press it out and press the new one in.
soak the abs sensor in wd40 over night before you attempt to remove it though as they are pigs and around £100 from ford

Your definitely gonna need a press to get the wheel bearing in and out. If it was the back ones it would be easier to do.
